TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) Republican Kris Kobachs campaign for the Senate in Kansas says it has fired an aide after learning he regularly posted hateful comments about Jews and racial minorities on a white nationalist website.
The latest campaign finance report filed by Kobachs campaign shows it paid Joe Suber of Olathe $500 for field coordinating services in September. The Kansas City Star reports Suber also filed paperwork in August making the campaign a limited liability company.
The newspaper said Suber has a history of making anti-Semitic and racist comments on The UNZ Review, a website with white nationalist and anti-Semitic content.
Kobach called Subers views abhorrent and repudiated them.
His campaign said Suber ran errands and did other small tasks.
Suber suggested some of his posts might be humor.
